Tom and Jerry talked in a few cartoons, the last one being Chuck Jones' The Cat Above, The Mouse Below), and it was really given the situation and what they said that mattered--not how many times they chose to speak. Tom's line at the end of Million Dollar Cat is a perfect example of when to have them talk, based on what he went through during the cartoon.
